Hello KMMS Families,
Today’s post is going to hit on two important items:
Parent Teacher Conferences
Conferences are already next week and we’d love to meet with as many of our parents as possible! Please be sure to make note of the information emailed from your student’s teachers to sign up. Conferences are on the evening of 11/2 and the morning of 11/3.
KMMS Cell Phone Policy
Ms. Lloyd’s message this morning to our students focused on getting back on track with our cell phone policy. We respect our parents’ decisions to give their children cell phones and understand that a cell phone is the standard for safety and emergency communication with parents. We do ask that our parents help our students abide by school policy. There are numerous and far-reaching positives of having a policy for students to be off phones in school. Here is a link with more info - https://www.waituntil8th.org/why-wait.
As a reminder, it is our policy that phones should be either turned off and in students’ lockers or they should be checked into the phone caddies that are in each classroom. Students should check their phones before going to lunch if necessary, and then leave their cell phones in their lockers during lunch. It is not only school policy, but state law, that cell phones are not used in the bathroom or locker rooms because of recording capability.
Let’s not kid ourselves. Cell phones are a big deal, and it takes all of us being on the same page to implement a policy that benefits the well-being of our students while in school. We really appreciate your support.
Have a great weekend!
